On the early morning of Feb. 14, I was driving up Newport Avenue approaching St. David Street when I saw a duck in distress. The duck was in the middle of the road and was injured. I stopped but the car in front of me had already stopped. He left his warning lights on and went back to assist the duck. This was a wonderful act of kindess.

LETTER: Saanich staff salaries out of line

LETTER: Saanich staff salaries out of line

I find the salaries paid to the top local bureaucrats in Saanich rather offensive. One is paid $60,000 more than the premier of B.C. Saanich has to clean up their house.
